Driver location

Description

Important

in-Operating System (in-OS)

This is a driver selected by the operating system.

The operating system detects your product and installs the print driver automatically. You do not need to download or install the printer driver.

Feature: You will have at least basic print capability with USB and network connections.

This requires an active USB or Ethernet connection to the printer.

If driver installation does not occur, then you need to make sure the operating system's Automatic Updates* service is enabled.

* NOTE: If both In-OS and Windows Update drivers are found, the actual driver installation will precede the final Windows Update driver installation.

These are drivers specifically made for a certain printer model which provide full printer functionality along with additional software to help you get the most out of your printer.

b. Universal Printer Driver (e.g., PCL XL, PS3, or PCL5e)

The Lexmark Universal Print Driver provides users and administrators with a standardized, one-driver solution for their printing needs. Laser printers and select business inkjet models support the use of the Lexmark Universal Print Driver.

Support for Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Server 2003

Software support containing the latest patches and/or updates for Lexmark software ended April 8, 2014 for Microsoft Windows XP and July 15, 2015 for Microsoft Windows Server 2003. This is in-line with Microsoft’s announcement regarding official support end-dates for these operating systems.

Unfortunately, your printer is NOT supported with this particular version of operating system (e.g., Windows, Macintosh, or Linux).

You may have to upgrade your printer to one that is compatible with your operating system.

We attempt to provide support for legacy products based on consumer demand and the continued evolution of technology standards. Support for legacy products is eventually withdrawn as we continue to focus on products with new standards and operating system capabilities.
